Congrats on turning the big 1-0, Youthink! You’ve come a long way.
Writing for the magazine from 2001 to 2003 was my first experience with deadlines, edits and having my work published (I was the resident hip-hop writer back then). It was also my stepping-stone into the world of journalism and helped me decide to attend Ryerson University in Toronto. Since graduating from Ryerson’s journalism program, I’ve gone on to work at the Globe and Mail newspaper and become Editor-in-Chief of my own start-up pop culture publication, CreamWorld magazine. Thanks Youthink for opening the door to my journalism career.
